Tend to Support, though a comment noted by @ArthurPSmith: on the proposal of Indian Financial System Code (P4635), a related property, has me wondering whether the creation of this property will lead to 15,000 new items for bank branches. Mahir256 (talk) 16:35, 5 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I think this should have a more explicit label: it would be useful to know that the property stores a code (and ideally that it applies to Australia, although the description could be sufficient for that). What about "Australian bank branch code" or "Australian bank branch ID"? − Pintoch (talk) 08:56, 15 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Comment @Pintoch: People using this property would likely just want to type "BSB" as this is the often used abbreviation in Australia. I'm happy with "Australian bank branch ID" as the name and "BSB" (and other names) as aliases. Dhx1 (talk) 13:14, 15 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I changed the name to "Australian bank branch ID". ChristianKl ❪✉❫ 08:01, 8 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
